세라믹 접시와 도자기 접시: 차이점은 무엇인가요?

When buying dinner plates, many customers often wonder: “What’s the difference between ceramic and porcelain?” Although they are most likely used indiscriminately, they actually have differences in raw material, making process, texture and usage in professional life. Being a ceramic tableware factory with more than 30 years of production experience, 진화 도자기 will guide you to know in one article today: Ceramic vs Porcelain Plates.

Definition of Ceramics and Porcelain

• 세라믹 is a large category that covers all clay-based utensils that are fired and hardened, including stoneware, pottery, porcelain, etc. What we call “ceramics” in daily life mostly refers to pottery tableware that is fired at low temperatures and has a rough surface.

• 도자기 is a type of ceramic, but it belongs to the high-end category. It is made of kaolin and fired at a higher temperature (usually above 1200°C). It has a denser texture, a smoother surface, and even a slight translucent feel.

5 Key Differences Between Ceramic and Porcelain Plates

Raw Materials and Firing Temperature

• Ceramic uses ordinary clay and has a lower firing temperature (about 900~1100°C).
• Porcelain uses finer materials such as kaolin, has a higher firing temperature (above 1200°C), and has a denser structure.

Appearance and Texture

• The surface of ceramic plates is relatively rough, often with a handmade texture or decorative glaze.
• The surface of porcelain plates is white and delicate, shiny, smoother to the touch, and visually more upscale.

강도 및 내구성

• Ceramic is thicker and heavier, has good impact resistance but is relatively more prone to water absorption or micro-cracks.
• Porcelain is lighter and harder, not easy to absorb water, and has strong scratch resistance.

Usage Scenarios

• Ceramic is suitable for home use, traditional style, rural restaurants, retro cafes and other places.
• Porcelain is widely used in formal occasions such as high-end hotels, fine restaurants, banquets and events.

Price Comparison

• The production cost of ceramics is relatively low, which is suitable for large-scale daily purchases
• The cost of porcelain is relatively high, and it belongs to high-end tableware, which is relatively more expensive.
